Grass carp is a freshwater fish, which belongs to a relatively common fish in China. After adulthood, the body length of grass carp is generally about 1 meter, and the larger grass carp can exceed 2 meters. However, how long the grass carp can grow will be affected by some factors. For example, the size of artificially raised grass carp and wild grass carp is not the same. Grass carp in captivity grow especially fast, and sometimes they are bigger.
Environmental factors are also one of the important factors affecting the body size of grass carp. In the case of suitable environment, grass carp not only grow fast, their development state is good, so the body size will be relatively large. On the contrary, if the environment is very unsuitable, or even seriously polluted, grass carp are prone to illness, slow growth and development, and small size.
The size of grass carp is still relatively large, generally speaking, it can reach at least 5 kilograms in weight. Some grass carp are very large, and their weight can reach 40 kilograms. However, this very large grass carp is relatively rare. Especially in captivity, sometimes grass carp will be sold after they reach a certain weight, and they will not continue to grow.
The growth rate of artificially raised grass carp is very fast, because the environment is relatively suitable, which is beneficial to the growth and development of grass carp. Generally speaking, the weight of grass carp can reach more than 1 kg after one year of cultivation, about 7 kg after two years of cultivation, and about 10 kg after three years of cultivation.
